ahmad:13143Rawḥ > Hishām > Muḥammad

[Machine] I asked Anas ibn Malik, "Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ dye his hair?" He said, "He never had a lot of gray hair to begin with, only a little. Abu Bakr and Umar used to dye their hair with henna and katam."  

أحمد:١٣١٤٣حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ

سَأَلْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ هَلْ خَضَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ لَمْ يَكُنْ رَأَى يَعْنِي مِنَ الشَّيْبِ إِلَّا يَسِيرًا وَقَدْ خَضَبَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ أَحْسِبُ بِالْحِنَّاءِ وَالْكَتَمِ

Anas b. Malik was asked whether Messenger of Allah ﷺ dyed his hair. He said: He had not become old enough to have white hair. Ibn Idris said that he had a few white hair. Abu Bakr and Umar, however, dyed hair with hina' (henna).
